| Wales Silences Louisville, 8-0 | A favor to his bullpen. That's what Ed Wales was doing at Vulcan Grounds, as he blanked the Louisville Colts, 8-0.
"I went out there to try to eat up innings and help out our bullpen," the Pittsburgh Vulcans right-hander said later. "I felt I had my good stuff, and it turned out my command was solid."
Wales notched 2 strikeouts, surrendered no walks, allowed 2 hits, and kept the bullpen phone quiet all day long.
This year, Wales has worked 176.2 innings with 57 strikeouts en route to a 10-12 record and 3.11 ERA. | | |  | |
